Help! I'm stuck in the Neutral Zone! |

A vast NHL conspiracy has landed your intrepid author to the confines of the Neutral Zone area on Hockeybuzz. One minute I was writing about my lightsaber fight with Gary Bettman deep within the bowels of NYC's NHL headquarters on the main blog....then the next day, touting my 4 for 4 on my Round 2 predictions - then WHAMO!
I feel like the Atlanta Thrashers. But at least I haven't given up all my draft picks this year and the next.
Upon my "jailing", I call Eklund on my Hockeybuzz Batphone.
"Ekky here!"
"You fiend! You cad!" I cry. "Did you think that I'd go quietly into the night."
"Gallof? Is this you again? I told you, we are working on your pics and logos for your blog. Just a matter of time," explains Eklund.
"I know Colin Campbell and Bettman are behind this!," I continue, undeterred. "I cannot be silenced!"
"Dude...chill out. I'm telling you...we are on it. My crack team of Hockeybuzz coders and admin are on the case."
"The Neutral Zone is no place for a Doctor of Hockey Journalism, damnit!" I vent.
"Dude...it's only temporary," Eklund pleads.
"Ok ok," I relent, "Let me know when it's all fixed."
"No problem" Eklund says merrily.
I pretend to hang up the phone and listen intently.
"Jeez, what a pain in the ass," breathes Eklund, putting the phone away from his face. "Sorry Gary, where were we. Yes...we will keep him under wraps, have no worries...."
